Tried searching (medicine related), but will Phentermine DQ?
I am about to be headed to MEPS on Wednesday to do my ASAB and then on Thursday to do my physical. The question at hand right now is, will I be able to join the Marine Corps since I was prescribed Phentermine, which is a dietary supplement which has to be given to someone by Rx.
The reason I ask this, is because it does pop up on UA's as an amphetamine. My doctor and pharmacist have both reassured me that as long as I tell whomever is giving me the UA, that it is prescribed that I should be ok. However, I know that military standards differ from the civilian world, especially Marine Corps standards.
Could someone give me a little more definite answer on this mater?
